NITI Aayog member (Health) Dr VK Paul during a media briefing on Thursday informed that Hyderabad-based Bharat Biotech, which has made the COVID-19 vaccine ‘Covaxin’ has expressed willingness to share the vaccine formula with other manufacturers in order to ramp up COVID-19 vaccine production in the country.
Dr Paul said, “People say that Covaxin should be given to other companies for manufacturing. I am happy to say that Bharat Biotech has welcomed this when we discussed it with them.” Dr Paul, however, added that Coavaxin can only be manufactured in the Biosafety level 3 (BSL3) labs.

Dr Paul added: “Covaxin is made by inactivating a live virus. This happens only in the BSL3 laboratory which is very sophisticated. It is not something that every company has. We give an open invitation and we have already reached out from our side to make it together.”
Dr Paul further added: “Not every company has this. We give an open invitation to companies who want to do this. Companies that want to manufacture Covaxin, should do it together. Govt will assist so that capacity is increased.”
